Not saying good, bad, or otherwise, just a few observations. Most of the electronic stuff made in Japan, China, etc was developed in the US, but now assembled overseas. 50 years ago anything made in Japan was considered junk, now accepted as ok. Japanese cars an example. Spent the last 9 years of my working life dragging a freight box across the country. Hauled flat steel, cut to size, from Mpls to south Texas.
